She Makes Him Known

Today, I give you She Makes Him Known, a product of months of labor and years of unquestionable growth.

When I created my first blog seven years ago – a month before I started university – it was a safe place for me to document my process of healing. I was a young girl completely lost in her emotions; the only way I could make sense of my reality was through writing. I documented this season solely for myself until I slowly (and unintentionally) built an audience. I found out that many were, at that time, going through the same turmoil – the big, magical blessing of shared brokenness. People need hope. People need to feel understood. People need empathy.

Through time, I discovered that this public platform may be used to fill people’s hearts with love and light. Ultimately, by bravely sharing my faith, I tether my passions and every individual’s deep need for God. I spent years silencing my inner demons and finally had the courage to move. I started this and am continuing the unbelievably good work of the Lord in my life.

Welcome to my new home. I hope that you find a part of yourself in it – and Jesus too.

For the Lord will cause something new to happen – (she) will embrace her God. (Jeremiah 31:22)

Burnt out, exhausted, and lifeless…are these words to describe your time with God? We’ve all been there. There are divine seasons marked by one breakthrough after the other, fueled by God-breathed passion – when Scripture feels supernaturally alive, life is full of purpose, and God’s mission is clear. Then we wake up, barely willing to […]
